The Nerd makes his first ever game review, and tries to tackle Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest for the NES, revealing the many flaws and issues that came with it. This is Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 1.

The Nerd reviews all the crap Nintendo tried to market along with the NES. Zapper guns, LaserScopes, Roll'n Rocker, and other accessories one needs to look "cool" while playing video games.

The Nerd complies to his fan requests to review Superman 64 which he decided to pull everyone's leg by reviewing the Superman game for Commodore 64. His main complaint is the load time takes forever and he finds the Commodore controller to be so stiff that he resulted in using an alternate controller. After that he does review Superman 64 for the Nintendo 64 as the fans wished him to do so in the first place. Once he dived into the first level he already finds it to be terrible when all you do is fly through rings under a short time limit. When it comes to video game...

In an ironic change of pace, the Nerd decides to review video games based on himself. Yeah, over the years, an abundance of AVGN games have been created independently by aspiring game designers. As a special tribute, the Nerd gives them each their 15 seconds of fame.

AVGN gets dressed up like Batman to review a series of games based on the Caped Crusader. First up, a Commodore 64 game, which sucks and is given "the Bat punishment." While he praises the NES adaptation of the 1989 movie and the SNES adaptation of Batman Returns, not to mention the SNES game of the Animated Series, he deems the Atari Linx and Sega CD games to be crap, but the worst of all is Batman Forever on SNES. As if all that weren't bad enough, one of Batman's arch-nemeses pays the Bat-Nerd a visit.

Another selection of accessories receives a good thorough look from the Nerd. This time, its a collection of accessories for the Game Boy, including good ones – like the Game Boy Camera and the Game Boy Printer – bad ones, and even a patented one that was aimed for use in hospitals.

When the Nerd finds a copy of Nintendo Power exuding a belief that EarthBound was a rotten game, he later finds reviews that show how glamorous the game was and reveals a fanbase for a title he now has to play. So he does – via the Super NES Classic Edition – and provides an insight about the game's various flaws but well thought-out gameplay.

In Angry Video Game Nerd episode 218, The Nerd wakes up with a throbbing headache and his memories missing, so he searches his NES library for clues in hopes to solve the mystery and end this bad case of Déjà Vu!

Follow the Nerd as he makes an episode from start to finish!

After clearing up the 7-year mystery of Taxman, the Nerd looks at an abundance of Tiger Electronic handheld games. You remember those, right? Basically a poor man's Game Boy? But those were only the beginning...

The Nerd stumbles across a super rare Super Famicom game that is said to be the worst game ever made. He's reviewed some horrible titles before, like Plumbers Don't Wear Ties, CrazyBus, Big Rigs, Desert Bus and Superman 64 to name a few, but this takes this crap factor to a whole new level.

The Angry Video Game Nerd plays the Home Alone games with Macaulay Culkin! Sure, the Home Alone movie games have been covered before on AVGN, but never so many, AND with Mack himself.

The Nerd investigates the infamous handheld that gave us headaches...in 3D!

The Joker holds AVGN hostage and forces him to play the NES, Game Boy and Sega versions of Return of the Joker. They all suck. It enrages the Bat-Nerd so much, he breaks free and fights off the Joker, and then, as a final Bat punishment, he shoves every single bad Batman game up the Clown Prince of Crime's ass.

The Nerd begins an epic journey through the world of games based on Spielberg films!

The Nerd talks about a game on the Sega Dreamcast, the final Sega home console, and while he doesn't have much beef with it, he gets to review a crappy Dreamcast game. Simply known as "Seaman," it's a game about the aquatic reproductive system (what can you expect from a game named after jizz), it's interactive, it's freaky, and the has the voice of Mr. Spock for some reason.

In honor of the release of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, the AVGN reviews the games based on the original trilogy. Raiders of the Lost Ark on Atari, Temple of Doom and Last Crusade on NES, and naturally, they all suck. He does praise the Lucas Arts SNES release, which contains three much more faithful adaptations of the movies.

After doing an autograph signing at a convention, the Nerd receives a petition to review the NES game Ghost N' Goblins. While he comments that it's not a bad game, he does however admit that it's one of the hardest NES games to play. So the Nerd decides to review the game since it's Halloween related. As he's playing it he expresses that the fair thing about the game is that you're given unlimited continues so that way you don't have to keep restarting the game. The biggest flaw to the game however is that you're on given two life bars of health and that's it. While ...

The Nerd has for a while not done a review that's entirely dedicated towards sports games. The reason being of course is that he's not a big sports fan, he's a video game nerd to be exact. After getting requests to do a review on sports games, the Nerd complies to his fans by playing Atari sport genre games. Mainly cause those are the first sports games made for a home console. Most of the games don't resemble the actual sport either due to the limitation of graphics or due to the unusual rules that don't occur in a real life sport. Despite that the Nerd found most of...

The Nerd decides to review a good game for once which is Super Mario Bros. 3. Before he reviews it, he talks about the movie The Wizard which is how American gamers first learn about the game as it was a product placement along with the NES Power Glove. While the Nerd doesn't find the story for The Wizard to be great, he did admit that it holds a place in the gaming community. After putting his review on the Wizard aside he starts to play Super Mario Bros. 3, while it has a lot of hard parts it is really fun to play, however the Nerd couldn't help but notice the game ...

Game on the chopping block this week: Dick Tracy on Nintendo. The world's most popular yellow-coated detective in the world's most frustrating, nonlinear game. Watch as the Nerd struggles to find out-of-reach clues, tries to dodge impossible projectiles, and worst of all, realizes you only get 1 life and no continues.

The rarest and most widely sought NES game ever.

After a 6 month hiatus, the Nerd is back. And to honor his return to reviewing bad and challenging games, he decides to review some Schwarzenegger games for the NES. Mainly due to Schwarzenegger returning to acting after finishing his term as Governer. When it comes to Arnold, his action films are always appealing to watch. As for video game adaptations it's the complete opposite. They either don't feature the main character to resemble Arnold or the game-play and level layouts are a complete mess. The Nerd saved all of the criticism for the Predator game for the NES....

The Nerd takes a look at arcade classic Polybius, while he also delves into the urban legend surrounding the mentioned side-effects of the playing the game.

Pepsiman!! Episode 168 of the Angry Video Game Nerd pits the AVGN vs. Pepsiman, the Japanese PlayStation classic. There was so many junk food video games in the 1990's. From MC Kids, to the Burger King Games, to Chester Cheetah. But what about the Pepsi superhero from Japan... Pepsiman?? Well. He's clumsy and useless, just like the game. Enjoy this Pepsiman review... with a Coke.
